No real empirical connections between the DNA and climate zones.
No more discussion on this

Totally agree that there is not much of an empirical evidence between DNA and climatic zones. Some glaring contradictions:
- Sri Lanka has a higher per capita GDP than most of the 'sthan' coutries like Turkmenistan , Uzbekistan and even Georgia but Sri Lanka IQ is lower
- India has almost same GDP as Vietnam, yet, Vietnam's IQ is much higher than India's.
Having said this, i would say, the opposite that there is no correlation between races and IQ, is also not conclusively proveable. When we look at Africa and Europe, the difference is glaring. Can anyone explain why Sri Lanka is richer than all African countries which have the same latitude ( like Sudan, Ethiopia, Nigeria etc ) . But, that is a different topic. Also , the average IQ's of various countries n( in it is present form ) itself is suspect and is not accurate. Perhaps , after when the IQ values of various countries have been measured accurately, can a meaningful comparision between countries be made.
Anyway, this topic is about DNA and Aryan migration theory, we are going off topic, into IQ.
